Your first paragraph when responding to Melia, and Jesus coming from the east the clouds orange and gold, brings to mind a VERY odd dream my ex-husband and I had the SAME night back in the 80’s!I dreamed I was at the beach, and it was HOT, the sun shining very brightly. A lot of people were there, swimming, playing, etc. All of a sudden, everything got pitch black… like when you’re in a cave, and they turn the lights off, where you can’t even see your hand in front of your face. People around me were screaming, but I wasn’t afraid, because I knew in my spirit that Yeshua was getting ready to come for me… I just knew it! All of a sudden, in this pitch black sky, gold, iridescent fireworks began going off everything the eye could see… it was gorgeous!!! And then out of the fireworks stepped the Messiah!!! It was at this point I woke up… so disappointed that it was just a dream.
At that time in my life, I was working in downtown Houston. My husband would drop me off at a vanpool nearby, and we were on our way there. I told him, “I had the oddest dream I’ve ever had last night!” He said, “Me, too! You tell me yours first, then I’ll tell you mine.” I got about the first line (quoted above) out of my mouth, and he FINISHED THE DREAM FOR ME… complete with the gold, iridescent fireworks!!! How WEIRD that was!!!
I never had that dream again, though I’ve had many others about the 2nd Coming… not the Rapture, just the physical 2nd Coming… throughout the years.
